OBITUARY.

Mrs. Sar0n A. Sharpe, daughter OF Will
May 10, 1907, in wesimore'and County, Pa.
She was the youngest child, and only
daughter that survived infancy, OF a fami-
ly of twelve. At three years OF age, she
lost her mother, and at Sc en-, her father,
from which time till her marriage, shc
was watched over and provided for by her
unmarried brothers. When seventeen
years of age she married Michael Crooks,
May 6. 1874, to whom were born six child
rem, i've of whom survive her, VIZ Mrs
II Newhorter, Mary Walt, John J.
Crooks, Lizzie A Cranmer, and Philia Il.
Friesner. Crooks, with his young wife:
Ohio in the summer of 1892, and settled at
Tarleton. Six years afterward they re-
moved to Losan, Ohio, where, after two
eooSs GfSUKs % to Tarieto with her de-.
pendent family. the eldest being fifteen
years old. and the youngest Gfteen mos,
where she maintained them By her unas.
She married her first husbands former bus
iness partner, Joseph A. Greene, Novem-
The family to which she was thus INTRO
duced, consisted of six children by a for
mer marriage, lthe youngest two years.,
who demanded the new mothers care.
In the fall OF 1855 Greene and three oil his
children died within few weeks, and
the twice widowed mother cared for the
remaining three-One, cripple, till she
died, and the other two LII their Eastern
friends took them to educate. Thb moth
erly love with which she discharged her
duty to these orphaned children is demon
strated by the hlial affecticn with which
the surviving members haye always re-
garded her.
After q widowhood OF twelve gears. her
children being all married and separated
from her. and having the burden OF a large
farm upon her, she again united in matri-
mony with Joseph Sharpe, December 1867,
with whom she lived till his death, March
1870. Since then she has made her home,
most of the time, with her daughter, Mrs'
W. 8. Friesner, where she died, June 9.
1887, aged 80 years and one month.
She and her husband, Michael Crooks,
united with the English Evangelical Lu-
therau Chnrch of TarletOn, protesting
faith in the winter of 1885, AMI through
all the vicissitudeS OF an eventful life she
has always been q consistent member of
that communion.
She was very happy in ber married
life, and in the long widowhood or almost
forty years, she sustained hereif with mod
est energy and industry, ever demeaEing
herself as widow indeed" She was a
woman of kindly and friendly nature,
frank, truthful and straight-forward, of a
keen and vigorous intellect, and active
habits. Through life she was always sur
rounded with friends, and was beloved by
all who knew her, when she peacefully
folded her busy hand to rest in faith in her
long loved Savior.
She was buried at Tarleton, Ohio, June
1lth, by the side or her first husband, and
father OF her children. Five children, six
great-grand-children survive her.

At the present rapid rate of restoration
the historic ruins of Sebastopol will in
another twelve months have given Place
to entirely new structures. Tho popuIa-
tion of Sebastepol ten ycarc 70 gsts3 fc-1e
10000; it is now closely c-,proaciling
10000. These figures sufficiently indicate
the rapid development of the new city and
port which is destined to become the head

now being created. 1t was in 1884 that
Sebastop0l YVES founded by the Russians
under ukase of Catherine II On the site
Of the old Tarter settlement AkEtiar;
but Nicholas was the first car to invest
the place with any Importance as a naval
and military port.
After the eleven months siege during
the Crimean war there remained standing
intact only fourteen buildings Subse-
qucntly the government, with view to
promote the commercial development Of
the port, granted an annual subsidy to
the city Of 100, COO rubles This subsidy,
with railway communication with tho in
terror, gave first and successful impulse
to the commercial port. Now, however,
the government is intent on making
Sebastopol its greatest southern naval
headquarters. 1t has this great advan-
tage over all other Crimean ports, that its
navigation is never closed by ice Last
year 139 British steamers entered and
loaded at Sebastopol. Sebastopol has
during recent years developed into very
pleasant watering place, more especially
since the completion of the new marine
boulevard and number of bathing insti-
buttons. The yearly increasing number
Of summer visitors and tourists have.
given rise to a number of large, well

ster's Unabridged was first published in
one volume, it was comparatively
small book. Some years after an adj
dition was made Of 1900 Pictorial illus
trations, A Table of aynonyms, and an
Appendix of New Words that had come
into use. A few years later came an en-
tirely new revised edition of larger size,
with 5000 Pictorial illustrations, then,
after interval ola few years, Biograph
ical Dictionary Of nearly 10000 Names
and Supplement Of nearly 5000 New

new and most valuable addition, A

SAND COULEE COIL.

The Great Falls Tribune assures us that
the coal in the vicinity OF Great Falls oc-
ours in large quantities and Of a quality
that will coke. We are glad to hear this
and hope it is true. Would it not be a
piece of enterprise on the part of the Tri-
bune to go a little farthertha n the thread
bare statement and give location Of the
coal with such clearneSs that anyone with
an ordinary map Of the country could see
about where it was? 1t would also be in
teresting to the general public to have the
results of the tests which determined the
coal to be coking more definitely desert
bed together with the names Of the chem
lists who pronounced OF these results. A
large deposit of coking coal, no further
away from the seat of the smelling aud
other metallurgical operations going on
than is Great Falls, would rival in value.
Under present conditions, the gold and
silver mines Of the territory and no time
should be lost in developing the same.
While the first cost in the establishment
of a coal mining plant is much greater
in proportion to the returns than in the
case of gold or silver the risks are so
much less that the proposition is a most
inviting one to anybody who is convinced
of the existence of the coal in paying
quantltles.-PhSlpsbufg Nal.
If the Mail will manifest a little pa
thence all Of these things will be fully and
clearly shown. The Montana Central rail
road company owns several thousand
acres Of coal land in Sand Coulee upon
which extensive development work is be-
ing dene. This company is building a
railroad to the mines, connecting with
their main line at this place, which will
be completed in a few weeks. Within
two months there will be from 500 to 500
men at work in these mines getting
out the finest quality Of coal in Montana,
and no doubt the prosperous mining
camp of Philipsburg will draw largely
upon the Sand Coulee product for its sup
ply of coal and coke.
The Montana Central railroad com
pany would not invest hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars in the development of
these coal measures unless fully and
thoroughly convinced of their value, and
the practical test soon to be made by
them-the putting of the coal upon the
market-will answer fully every inquiry
of the Mail and we are confident relieve
its anxiety on the subject.

BE UP N DOING.

1t hehOoves Montana to be Watchful in
all matters concerning statehood. The
presumption that this territory is demo
cratic gives assurance that Dakota will
not be admitted, divided or otherwise,
without Montana as an offset to her strong
republican majority. But we should rest
our claim and our hopes on firmer
ground. We should provide against pc
litical mishaps by steady, energetic action
to attain certain Wel'-defined objects.
These objects should be az immediate
admission to statehood; (2) failing that,
the passing Of an enabling act which
would put us on the way to admission; (3)
the exclusion of any obnoxious condi-
tons from the enabling act.
These objects might be best promoted
by a convection like that held recently
in Aberdeen, Dakota, which adopted a
brief memorial! t. Congress and appointed
fifteen delegates to present it to Congress
and work p2rsuasively for statehood. Re
plies from fifty-eight republican and
eighteen democratic congressman re-
ceived by the Saint Paul Pioneer Press
indicate that the house is disposed to
grant the prayer of this memorial, which
would give Dakota leadership in all that
concerns statehood in the northw estern
territories.
Montana, which numbers SO many able
public men, cannot afford to take a back
seat while this movement is in progress.
Nor can she afford to be careless when
the fate of an enabling act is at stake.
The certainty of statehood even in 1889
would serve to turn the tiue of migration
next spring in this direction. 1t would
impart additional confidence to capitalists
and permit the territory to frame care
fully a model constitution. Let some
thing be done speedily.

reasonably be betrayed by taxation col
lected throughout many years.
1t would be more proper for congress to
authorize the people Of the Dakotas to
form constitutions with the simple pro
vision that they hall be "repuhlican." Il
congress discovers any provisions which
are not in accord with that stipulation if
will be fully justified in calling for revis
ion.
The Clifford bill smacks of the excep-
tional period Of reconstruction and con-
Germs Montana because it may be used as
a precedent. There are intricacies in Da-
kota politics which passeth understand

THE CLIFFORD BILL.

Delegate Gifford's bill for the admis-
sion of south and north Dakota as states,
has the merit of placing the demands of
these regions in formal shape. There its
merits may be said to end. The bill EN-
bodies a number of provisions which
have not been imposed on other states, and
are an infringement on the rights which
Dakotans, as American citizens, enjoy. Ac-
cording to the Clifford bill, south Dakota
must promise to make no distinction in
civil and political rights on account Of
never give or loan the credit of the state
to any association, corporation OF private
undertaking, and must never incur a
greater indebtedness than 5000. 900. The
constitution must likewise provide that
the legislature shall never exempt from
taxation any property held by any cor
poration for religious and educational
purposes. The constitution must also re-
nounce, on the part of the people, all
claim to the public and Indian lands, and
declare all navigab1e waters "shall be and
remain public highways, free to all citi-
zens of the United States"
Some of these provisions are wise and
have been embodied in the constitution of
other states. But there is no warrant for
imposing them on the Dakotas as the
price of admission. If they are
to form part of the fundamental
law, they should be engrafted there free
ly and not under duress.
Perhaps the worst of these provisions
is that which would limit the state debt
to 100000. During the late civil war
such Limitation would have prevented
many states from aiding literally the
Union cause. 1t would prevent South
Dakota from carrying out any great pub
lie work such as the Erie canal, or from
establishing institutions whose cost might I

The bridge builders took no holiday
yesterday, but worked like beavers on
the six timber piers which they have
built within six days. The work now
consists in placing successive courses of
tWelve-inch-square logs above the foun-
dation, which rests on the everlasting
rock. When this framework is COM
pleted the pier or crib will be filled with
stone, and iron shields will be placed on
the pointed fronts to resist the floating
ice when the tllaw sets in. There may
be delays in receiving timber, owing to
the snow, but otherwise the work will 90

Fort Benton Is now receiving Its mail
by the railroad as directly as possible,
both from Helena and the east, and yet
the citizens of that town do not seem to
be satisfied. At a meeting Of the board
Of trade a day or two ago a number Of
+" whereases and resolutions" were
adopted and sent to the postoffice de-
partment, asking for all sorts of things.
With a daily mail both ways by rail, we
fail to see how any improvement can be
made. There is certain to be delay by
snow blockades,b but this can not very well
be helped, as the postoffice people can not
be expected to control the elements.

Holiday papers are coming to table
thick and fast, and they are generally
attractive and full of good things. The
Saint Paul Pioneer Press and Globe
issued wonderful Christmas num-
bers, in which the g!ories of
the twin cities are deliberately
set forth. In the first named paper a
map Of the northwest is published, in
which the new country opened up by the
Manitoba receives full justice. Great
Falls, with its wonderful water power, its
coal, quarries, agricultural areas, etc,
receives a big benefit, great prominence
being given to this city and surrounding
territory. This is as it should be, for it
will not be long until the most intimate
and extensive business relations will exist
between Saint Paul and Great Falls.
